Possibly the easiest Roast Lamb you will ever make! Tender meat falling off the bone in just two and a half hours.
Easy Roast Lamb
I don’t have many photos of this roast as I wasn’t planning on posting it. I had picked it up from the organic store at the markets, wanting to cook it so I could make bone broth with the bones. It turned out so delicious and was really easy, I thought I would take a quick pic so I can share this simple recipe. You can use shoulder or leg for this, whatever you can get your hands on.
I made a really simple gravy with the pan juices and served with roast veggies. It would go really well served with my Crispy Smashed Potatoes with Rosemary, you can find the recipe here.
